You add fluid in the same pipe the dip stick is in. Remove the dip stick and insert a funnel and add fluid through there. Check it frequently since there is no way to remove fluid easily if you over fill the transmission.

You would need to provide year,make and model for an accurate answer, but generically, trans fills from the dip stick tube. Most trans fluid measurements are to happen at normal operating temperature, engine ilding in park or neutral.

get a transmission funnel. it is wide and has a flexible tube. remove your dipstick. unless you have just replaced the filter or transmission add fluid by the pint to a transmission. get the fluid with the car running and in park. you will need to add some. wait for it to settle,. start the car and repaet till full.

this t-bird has a 5r55s trans. it does not have a dipstick.
it has a "standpipe" type leveling system.
to check fluid level the tranmission has to be within 80-120 degree f.
take the plug out of the center of the fitting located on the bottom of the trans pan. it is a torx 30.
running in park the fluid should drip slower than a coffee pot.
to add you need a npt thread fitting the same as the little plug you removed. and attach a bottle of mercon5 and hose to it. squeeze the bottle to add fluid
then recheck it by letting it drain out to a fast dribble. then install the little plug back in.
remember 80-120 degree fluid temp.
